It says 225cc's....which is equal to 225ml. I measured that and that is way too much. Dont getall travel and took some oil out and get more travel.

So back to my first question, what is the level springs out, fully compressed?

I imagine you may be hard pressed to get the answer but you may want to start with the recommended amount and trial and error using a syringe to extract the amount of oil to your liking (take note how much your removing since you may have to re-add some) and you'll know for next time...

Or see if Marzocchi can provide an answer...

Good luck!

Completely empty the fork of all oil. Cycle the cartridges to remove oil from them. Then add 225 ml of oil via syringe. This will work, you most likely didn;t remove all the old oil.

225 cc of oil in the 66 is way too much. Marzocchi have to update their oil charts.

The level is 100 mm from the top of the stanchion, springs removed and fully compressed
